Are you sure it's clear coat and not from grinding?

I'm beginning to wonder this. There is next to nothing a razor blade won't scrape off the windscreen, I've used it so many times and its always worked

As suggested by Ben, if its been near any sort of grinding, the grinding sparks can melt the laminated layer on the windscreen and leave you little marks on your windscreen, which if you cant get it off with a razor blade sounds more likely to be the issue.

No grinding of any sort, car hasn't been painted as such, I sprayed painted where the bonnet hinge is and got lazy with spraying clear on the area

If a razor blade doesn't take it off then I doubt it's overspray, should come off with ease! Or try wire wool and glass cleaner another easy option!

Pic of affected area after clay bar and glass polish, specks really stand out when driving with direct sun on windscreen

Not overspray mate that's for sure, looks like tiny chips I had a 200sx with the same thing very annoying when sun hits it, can't see shit my screen was covered. Looks like your only option is new screen! :(

Use white spirits, on a rag and elbow grease

We use it all the time when vandals paint our (earthworks) machines. Works very well on glass

Do not let it touch any paint, it works like a thinner and strips paint unless its powdercoated

Or aeroguard, works aswell on paint on glass

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
